Time in a collapsing world

Forget it, bit off more than you can chew.

Li finally gave up on expanding the template. After all, at the current rate, it would be too long for this [New World] to extend to Venus in tens of thousands of years.

After leaving the [New World] and returning to the base, Li went to Mebius.

The door of the laboratory was closed, and Li heard no human movement outside. Only the Klein doll was still working hard.

Isn't Mebius here...?

"Little white mouse, what are you doing standing outside the door?"

It was said that Cao Cao had arrived, and just when Li was about to leave, Mebius's voice came from behind.

Li looked back and found that the green-haired girl in front of her was wearing a white coat that almost dragged to the ground. She was sitting on something like a suspended chair and staring at him.

"I have something to do with you, and I thought this trip would be in vain." Li looked at the chair under Mebius, and then at her little feet sitting on the chair that could hardly touch the ground. The corners of his mouth moved, but he still controlled himself from showing a pleasant smile.

"……come in."

Mebius walked in front of Li and pushed open the door of the laboratory. The Klein doll inside heard the sound and looked up slightly, then ignored it.

He is more diligent than Klein himself, at least the latter can say hello.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Mebius made herself a cup of coffee. Although there were no dark circles under her eyes, Riya could tell that she had been staying up late these days.

Ri closed the door, took out the colorful sphere symbolizing the [New World], and threw it to Mebius.

Snap————!

The ball hit the ground, and the atmosphere between the two suddenly became awkward.

"Aren't you going to answer?"

"Why should I answer?"

A pleasant smile appeared on the corner of Mebius's mouth, and he said slowly: "Don't think that I don't know what you were thinking when you were secretly looking at my feet outside. You must be thinking about when I will become shorter again... …Am I right, little guinea pig?”

"..."

Li opened her mouth but did not refute. She silently walked to Mebius and picked up the sphere that had fallen to the ground and was stuck on the table leg.

"Ahem...this is a very precious thing, at least to you humans."

"Is this the trump card to eradicate Honkai?"

"……no."

"Is there a way to kill [Final Yan]?"

"no……"

"Then what's the use?"

Mebius glanced at Li with disdain, and Li smiled awkwardly, knowing that Mebius was deliberately making fun of him.

"It can be regarded as a [world bubble] that has not yet taken shape..."

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Mebius showed an interested expression and took the initiative to take it from Li's hand. He turned it over and over curiously for a long time, "Is this the shelter you built for humans in this era?"

"...No, it's for the next era of mankind."

Li explained, "You know the [Ark Project], right?"

"Is that the plan that almost ran aground?"

Mebius naturally understands most of what is going on in the Fire Chaser. She used to be blind to what was happening outside the window, but now she has to strengthen her connections with the outside world even if she no longer wants to.

Faced with the threat of [Endgame], even the maverick Mebius cannot stay away from the team and work alone.

"Now it can be officially declared stranded." Li said.

"Indeed, after all, the purpose of [Project Ark] is just to find a place to live away from the collapse."

If what Li said is true, then there is indeed no need for the [Ark Project] to exist.

"I would like to ask you to keep it until the next era begins." It was a request, but Li did not show much solemnity. Mebius also played with the sphere indifferently, even if he knew that she was holding it. What effect will [World Bubble] have on human beings?

"You're actually attracted to humans...is it Alicia's influence?"

A while ago, Li seemed to be ignoring humans. Mebius just stared at his face that was fused with Alicia's shadow, and curled his lips in displeasure.

"It will have a certain influence, but the most important thing is for the experiment. By the way, this is what Velvet asked me to do." Li shrugged.

"Aren't you afraid that I might accidentally destroy it for my own thirst for knowledge?" Mebius smiled maliciously.

"That's not the case... aren't you a scientist who specializes in the field of biology? And with your ability, it is unlikely that you can destroy it." Li is not worried at all. His creation has the [indestructible] feature among other things. Yeah, I'm afraid it can't even split open Kevin who is holding the Skyfire Sword. What can a little Mebius do?

Unless Mebius accidentally lost it and left it in an unknown corner, it can be said to be no different from being damaged.

It's just that this situation is unlikely. Even though Mebius says he doesn't care, he won't really treat this one of humanity's hopes casually. He will definitely do his best to keep it safe, even if he lies in a dormant cabin. Riya would definitely carry it with him, how could he lose it?

"It can't be destroyed...then I can rest assured~"

Li was right. As an expert in the biological field, Mebius had limited curiosity about such inanimate things. What he said just now was just to scare Li.

Unfortunately, he didn't see Li's speechless expression after being frightened, and Mebius expressed his displeasure.

"Do we have to hide this from others?" Mebius shook the sphere in his hand.

"What do you mean by 'ye'... No, it's not a secret anyway. It's okay to make it public, but it's best to let Mei know about it later, otherwise she might devote some of her energy to this."

Li also saw the situation at Mei's side when he came back. He was running around in the base, with various plans and arrangements emerging one after another. There were more plans than those made in the original [Future], but the success rate was far higher. It is inferior to [Hengsha], [Fire], [Ark], [Stigma]... It can be seen how low the success rate of those plans is.

But Mei still spent her energy on these plans with extremely low success rates. Perhaps after seeing the [future], she planned to put eggs in more baskets to achieve a higher probability of success.

And thanks to this, Li had no choice but to postpone her plan to "let Mei [die]" again, even though the countdown was almost over.

Although Kevin's final growth is not essential, it is just in case, because it may be related to everyone's lives.

Li thought of the savior's shadow in the original [Future] who used a super powerful sword to knock [End Page] to pieces, and pondered slightly.

Yes...Kevin must defeat [Endgame], even if it's just for a short time, it's necessary.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to save them.
